Ok, so I have been thinking about buying a wool blanket to go under my hammock this autumn and then I saw this on eBay:

it is beautiful. I am thinking of buying it. I am thinking that a wool blanket would get compressed under the body and then not be so warm, but this would not get so squished BUT because the weight of it is a disadvantage.......(I think it will be crazily heavy to carry??????) is it worth it? I mean, would a lightweight blanket do just as well in terms of warmth? I think the skin appeals to my primitive romanticism but practically, do you think I would struggle with its weight?
Has anyone had any experience with one of these skins?
